"That's right! The Lost Divine Realm! We're about to succeed, do you understand? We can ascend to the Divine Realm, become immortals and gods!" Mabel Ames Xiao was half-crazed. "Evan Lan, Lily Bai, are you going, or not?"
Lily Bai walked toward her step by step.
Before heading to Heaven's Gate Mountain, I'm going to carve this woman up first!
But her arm was suddenly grabbed by someone.
She turned her head—it was Evan Lan.
He looked down at her, his gaze a little complicated.
Lily Bai grinned at him, "Xixi, what's going on? How did you guys get back?"
Evan Lan didn't answer. Instead, he held onto her tightly and said to Max Mo and Uncle Ernie, "Let's go."
Max Mo came over and took charge of Mabel Ames Xiao.
Uncle Ernie was still 'holding' Eric Lan, Evan Lan held Lily Bai, and together they walked into the inner room.
Xavier Xiao didn't go inside. He said to General Clark Lan, "Clark, the people outside the city were all misled by Victor Liu. They're still loyal to me. Take some men, go calm them down, and bring them back to Military HQ."
General Clark Lan accepted the order and left.
Xavier Xiao's gaze swept over everyone present and landed on the senior political-legal official.
The man was already drenched in sweat.
Under Xavier Xiao's stare, he fainted with a thud.
......
Evan Lan and his group used magic to teleport to Heaven's Gate Mountain.
To the mountaintop where Lily Bai had once fallen.
Someone was there.
Kieran Xiao.
He sat in his wheelchair, and when he saw the group suddenly appear in midair, he wasn't the least bit surprised. Instead, he gave a faint smile: "You came."
Lily Bai ignored him, instantly vanished, and reappeared in the hollow core beneath the mountain.
Just like in the video, Benjamin Bai was inside.
He really was here.
Still tied to that chair, either unconscious or asleep, head lolling to one side, eyes closed.
But now, there was something new beside him.
Red Light.
The chair was enveloped in Red Light.
Lily Bai narrowed her eyes and reached out to touch the Red Light.
Then, as if electrocuted, she jerked her hand back.
This energy that can pierce through space is seriously intense.
Suddenly she remembered, when she tried to tear that painting apart, Evan Lan took the hit for her.
Did he get badly hurt?
Lily Bai returned to the surface and stared at Evan Lan (casting a spell to check him).
Sure enough, even though he looked human, his spiritual energy was extremely dim.
Not even one-thousandth as strong as the baby.
Maybe he spent a ton of spiritual power to save Xavier Xiao, driving out the outer-realm energy in his body.
He's really weak now.
He's probably only hanging on thanks to spirit jade.
He must have found that piece of spirit jade...
Sensing her gaze, Evan Lan looked at her too, then suddenly grabbed her and held her tightly.
What are you doing...
Lily Bai could have easily broken free.
But the familiar clean scent on him made Lily Bai's whole body go soft, and she didn't really struggle—she just let him hold her.
"Lily Bai," Kieran Xiao called to her.
"Hm?" Lily Bai looked at him.
"Did you see your father?"
"I did," Lily Bai replied.
"This." He pointed at the ground. "Put the sensor there, and place it in the right spot!"
The ground was a circular thing, like a teleportation array.
Next to the teleportation array were four round stones with carvings on them.
"This is a relic of a teleportation array," Lily Bai said. "You even managed to find Spell Stones?"
Placing the Spell Stones on it will activate the array.
"All thanks to Senior Eternal Wishfish," Kieran Xiao said. "It found them."
